Usage explanations to ESR supported model type.

Dears:

Through Enterprise Service Repository, packaged with PI product, we can

store our service metadata. In addition, we can leverage its Enterprise

Service Builder to model our service building blocks.

Per the published articles, it seems only five model types can be

integrated with IDS Scheer ARIS platform. They are SAP entity map, SAP

Integration scenario model, SAP ProComp interaction model, SAP ProComp

model, and SAP scenario catalog respectively.

My question is where I can find their usage introduction guide or rich

examples to depict how to leverage their capability adequately. I don't

mean how to draw them via ESB; my key points are their inside modeling

mindsets or methodology.

Since I have spent much time to look for documentations on your web

Thanks for your assistances.

Hi Chih Jen,

Welcome to SOA forum.

May be this link will be useful: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/26/dae78240c24944b7eed2182d959444/content.htm

However, you need to spend considerable time to understand them. To help to start, you can define service without modeling as well.

In SAP world Business Object is central entity within SOA. Every Business Object has some operations (or some operations are performed on BO) and logical grouping of these operations is known as "Service Interface".

So Business Object = OOP Object + Business sense (Customer, Employee etc)

Operation on BO = Methods (CreateEmployee etc)
